Wohoo! It seems I'm to join too!
History
Thoward Choster was a child of violence. Born in a small rural town constantly plagued by bandit raids and the occacional goblin invasion, he saw more than his fair share of suffering when growing up. As his father was unknown and his mother died in childbirth, he was taken in by the town blacksmith, Theodor, and set to working the bellows. At the age of thirteen, a huge bandit king laid waste to many villages in the region, but Thowards town was instead captured by the bandit king and most of the surviving inhabitants, including Thoward and Theodor, were enslaved. Theodor went sick from life as a slave though, and after some months, he died away. Thoward was now the towns only blacksmith, and that kept him alive as he plotted to cause a rebellion. He secretly made spear- and arrowtips, and he spoke with a few friends throughout the town. Eight years passed until the bandit lord found out, only weeks before the coup would have been.
It was decided that he should meet the gallows. The gallows were placed right outside of town to scare of would-be heroes, and when the rope were to be set about his neck, he flipped. The rage that had been building in him for the last eight years made him kill the executioner and a guard, and just ran. After hours running through the dense forest, his pursuers gave up, but he was in the middle of a forest with nowhere to go. He survived for months in the wilderness and found a road at the edge of the forest where he planned to ambush any raiders. Instead he met a mercenary company of good spirits, and joined them. Since then he has been a sellsword, taking particulary joy in hunting down bandits, and left the town far behind.
Personality & Appearance
While Thoward isn't exactly altruistic, he would never accept working for an evil cause. He is a staunch defender of liberties, having felt the pain of slavery, and he has a passionate hate for bandits of all kinds. He is a warm and talkative person, and enjoys good company and good drink - though he isn't in any way a drunkard. Still wondering if his friends turned him in so many years ago, he has a hard time really trusting someone, but doesn't show that outwards. He's reluctant to speak of his background more than very generally, saying that he was a slave or prisoner of war, but nothing more than that. He sometimes has a little hard to understand hints and social indicators from other people, but it's not a real problem. He's of average height, muscular, and his skin is fair though reddened by months in the sun and years at the anvil. He keeps his hair and beard short, cutting them when needed, but don't care about shaving. The hair is brown, as is his eyes. He's got somewhat of a stomach, finally being able to savour the good of life after the years in slavery, but it isn't big enough to actually hinder him. Casually, he wears simple clothes and has his longsword by his side. When on a mission, he wears chain shirt.
